The easiest thing would be to get to 95 as soon as possible and the best way to do that would be to be close to the Delaware River. My general recommendation is to live in Old City, Pennsport, Queen Village but they need some help picking a building to live in.

The only building I know off the top of my head in that general areas is the Society Hill Towers and that is definitely OUT. looking for something affordable $1500-$2200 range.

Let me know if you can provide any recommendations.

Thank you!

Wed, 04 Feb 2015 22:44:17 GMTHello all. I'll try to answer these questions as best as I can. I am a 24 year old young professional looking to relocate to the city. I am currently commuting about 50 minutes each way to work as I am working just outside of Philly, but still in Jersey (Cherry Hill area). Looking to relocate to enjoy the city life for a little while, not to mention I do have a couple friends that live in University City and also North Philly. So far I have been looking at more of a Center City area preference to where I want to live. I would like to be near a lot of bars, but away from the overly drunk college type kids as I am a little bit past that in life haha. Obviously would like the area to be safe, and have some locally owned businesses preferably.
